Anyone going to be in Japan later this week?
If so, this would be amazing to see in person.
Factory Tours and Hands-On Workshops
At Seki Factory Open Day 2026, visitors can get a close-up look at manufacturing in Seki City, one of the world’s three major knife-making centers. Explore normally unseen areas inside factories, encounter the latest technology, and get an up-close feel for the skills of the craftspeople.
In addition to watching craftspeople at work and seeing precise manufacturing processes, visitors can try making something themselves in a workshop. The event is enjoyable for children and adults alike.
